Large expanses of lawn
surround the château, with lovely paths for walking and a chance
to meet the beautiful swan, Lorenza, on the lake. This park of fourteen
acres was designed by Alexis de Tocqueville's English wife, Mary Motley,
and there is a lovely English garden with a lake, lawns and fine specimen
trees and shrubbery.
A cluster of palm trees
remind guests of the pleasant micro climate in this region of Normandy.
A path leads through a pattern of hedges between the palms to the château.
As you explore the estate, you will discover vast expanses of lawns and
many wooded areas and clusters of specimen trees that have been here for
centuries.
There are many stunning
views on the estate such as this one looking over the lake toward the château.
Imagine the peace and tranquility you will enjoy as a guest of the Pavillon
at Château de Tocqueville.
